Abstract in Portuguese
A Plataforma Continental de São Paulo situa-se na região central da Plataforma Continental Sudeste. É uma plataforma larga, cuja ciruculação é dirigida em resposta às forçantes de vento, maré, variação de densidade e da Corrente do Brasil. Entretanto, a sazonalidade do papel relativo destas forçantes sobre a circulação costeira, assim como o papel das forçantes em anos com circulação atmosférica anômala, não são muito bem compreendidos. Este trabalho tem como objetivo estudar esta resposta referente às três primeiras forçantes, considerando a variação sazonal e duas situações atomosféricas diferentes: normal e ENSO (La Niña). Foram realizados experimentos numéricos através da suíte ECOM. Foram simulados os campos horizontais de temperatura, salinidade e velocidade, e calculados os transportes barotrópico e baroclínico, paralelos à linha de costa nas sessões transversais em frente à Ubatuba, Santos e Cananéia, até a isóbata de 100 m. Não foram observados padrões bem definidos de variação da circulação horizontal entre o ano neutro e o ano de La Niña, sendo que as principais diferenças encotradas estão relacionadas à sazonalidade das forçantes. Já o transporte de volume foi maior em todos experimentos de La Niña.

Abstract in English
The Sao Paulo Continental Shelf (SPCS) is part of the southeast Brazilian Coast, which is located between the latitudes of 19°S and 34°S. It is a wide shelf, where the circulation is mainly driven by the winds, the tides, the density variations, and the Brazil Current. However, the seasonal variation of those forcing mechanisms is not completely understood, as well as the interannual variations related to atmospheric anomalies as the ENSO. The aim of this study was to understand the SPCS seasonal circulation in response to those forcing mechanism. The seasonal circulation variability was analyzed during two years, one "normal" year, with no atmospheric anomalies, and an ENSO - La Nina year. The numerical experiments were conducted using the ECOM model. The alongshelf barotropic and baroclinic seasonal transports were calculated, showing that the LN experiment showed greater values.
